  "faq": [
    {
      "q": "Is school transport available for staff?",
      "a": "Many schools offer staff bus service on their main routes, either free or at a nominal fee. Availability depends on whether your home is near a school route — confirm with HR."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is English fluency required?",
      "a": "Yes — instruction is in English at most NO BOARD schools. Comfortable English communication for classroom delivery and parent meetings is expected."
    },
    {
      "q": "Where exactly is Mindseed Preschool and Daycare located?",
      "a": "The school is in Pune, Maharashtra. Check the \"About the school\" section for the campus link and the nearest public-transport reference."
    },
    {
      "q": "How big are the classes?",
      "a": "Class sizes in Indian K-12 schools usually fall in the 25–40 student range. Premium IB/IGCSE schools often cap sections at 22–25."

      "q": "What arrangements are there for women teachers' commute and safety?",
      "a": "Most reputable schools in Pune run staff transport (bus or shared cab) covering the main residential clusters, with women-first drop after evening duties.

    {
      "q": "Do staff get fee concession for their children?",
      "a": "Many schools offer a tuition-fee concession for the children of full-time staff, subject to admission criteria and available seats. The appointment letter or the school's written HR policy is the authoritative source — confirm what applies before treating it as compensation."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is there a probation period?",
      "a": "Yes — a 3 to 6 month probation is standard in K-12 schools across India. Benefits like PF and gratuity continue to accrue from day one regardless."
    },
    {
      "q": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?",
      "a": "Most schools review applications within 5–10 working days. If you don't hear back in two weeks, the role has usually been filled or paused — keep applying to similar openings in the meantime."
    },
    {
      "q": "Are detailed lesson plans expected?",
      "a": "Most schools expect weekly lesson plans submitted to the coordinator/HOD, plus unit plans at the start of each term. Templates are usually provided."
